Waterfalls on the Savage Mill Trail in Maryland

My wife and son seem to be very good at finding new places to take pictures. In Savage Mill Maryland at 9040 Gorman Road you will find the Bollman Iron Truss Bridge (constructed in 1869). It spans the Little Patuxent River. Right next to the bridge and river you will find the Savage Mill Trail and the waterfalls are only a short walk up the path ( about 400 yards). If you are planning to do photography either go very early in the morning or try an overcast day as direct sunlight on the waterfalls will most likely ruin your pictures.....Gary
